P: (Win) PS v25.12 Actions no longer play back brush strokes

For years I have been recording brush strokes as actions and playing them back (so I can record them with a 3rd party screencapture) but all of a sudden, Photoshop will no longer play back brush stroke animations. The brush strokes simply "pop on". Yes, I have "Allow Tool Recording" selected. If I switch playback options to Step-by-Step, the brush strokes pop on one by one but they will not animate. I know the brush strokes are recording correctly, because they still dynamically change if I change brushes. And about the correct amount of time ticks by on an empty screen before the completed strokes pop on.

 

I've tried resetting preferences, updating drivers, to no avail. I'd think this is just a bug in the latest update but I haven't seen anyone else report this problem... any ideas?

Hi all,

 

We are happy to announce the release of Photoshop version 26.1 (public release), which incorporates the resolution for this particular problem. To see the list of all fixed issues, click here

 

To update Photoshop to 26.1, click "Update" in the Creative Cloud desktop app next to Photoshop. More detailed instructions for updating

 

Let us know if the update resolves the problem for those affected, and share your feedback.

1. Photoshop 25.12

2. Apple OS Sequoia 15

3. See attached video. Record brush actions via the Actions panel. Playback set to accelerated. When playback is initiated, playback is now instantaneous instead of fast/quick/accelerated.

4. I expect to see brush strokes in a quick, sequential order at an accelerated pace. Not instaneous. Now all the brush strokes appear immediately all at once.

 

I am hoping this is a bug and not a performance improvement/feature. 

In version 24 and before of Photoshop, the "Accelerated" playback option in Actions Panel would show brush strokes and progress quickly, at an accelerated pace. This was extremely useful for showing the progressive nature of drawing art, or showing handwriting being drawn, etc. In version 25 and after, all brush strokes now appear immediately/instantaneously for the "Accelerated" playback. I don't want things to just appear. That is not useful.

Hoping this bug if fixed in future releases/patches. Thank you!
